 * Celia's Class Quotes**

__On Both Sides of The Wall__ ""A Catastrophe is about to come, and there is no one to tell us what to do." REACTION: WOAH MAN! Wasn't Hitler an authoritarian. This is a huge connection for my because it's really becoming obvious that people DO need to be told what to do. However, I do understand when in a situation with that much pressure why you wouldn't trust yourself to make a decision. I personally would turn to somebody else. Still though, I think it's amazing the way the human mind works.

//Autumn's Comment - It is amazing to see that people turned to others to be told what to do. I probably would to but I just think it is amazing that hardly anyone would listen to their heart and do what they felt was right.

Chris k.-wow it is really dumb how people could just sit there in not turn to anybody about whats happening and follow what they think its write in stead they sit and watch and listen to others when they should become the leader of it all.

Abby M.- I really do not think that they should just sit there. They should have done something about it instead of just watch it happen. That is really dumb of them to do that.

My reaction after reading this quote is "GET UP! DO SOMETHING YOURSELF! MOVE!" After directly stating that a catastrophe is about to happen they basically say "But woah me, who will give me directions how to get my butt up and move?". I just feel that something is better than nothing and could only help.-Frances G.// ........................................................................................................................................................ __Night__ "The whole day I wondered about as if sleepwalking. Now and then Tibi and Tossi would throw me a brotherly word. The Kapo, too, tried to reassure me. He had given me easier work today. I felt sick at heart. How well they were treating me! Like an orphan! I thought: even now, my father is still helping me." REACTION: My reaction to this quote is surprise. Yes, Elie was sick at heart but he was looking at what he thought was his father's death with such optimism it was heart wrenching. Elie was upset his father left him but so grateful that even through his death his father was helping. It seems like it would be easy for Elie to blame his father for being weak, to blame him for being picked in the selection. Instead Elie was extremely sad and eternally grateful.

It is a powerful testament to the bond between father and son even after death. M.

Reaction to The Nuremburg Trials Video

I Really loved this movie. America loves Law & Order and CSI. I personally love the shows as well. I always thought of the Nuremburg Trials as boring and trivial compared to the rest of the Holocaust. It always escaped me that many Nazi's were never caught and prosecuted. I also never thought that the Nazi's were even comparable to real human beings, and that in their dehumanization of the Jews they were dehumanizing themselves even more extremely. This movie showed me that the Nazi's were people and they were just as hard to prosecute as other criminals. It also showed me that these trials have set an example for years to come that not everything is okay during times of war, that there is a line you can cross in dealings with human life and you will face consequences to those actions whether by God, or the World.

The Nuremberg trials were very complex, yet fascinating. Seeing those characters as they were just proves that most of them lacked empathy or remorse. M. Fegan

Celia's Current Favorite Song**

**Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room A smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on and on and on

(Chorus) Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard Their shadows searching in the night Streetlight people, living just to find emotion Hiding, somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fill, everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice, just one more time Some will win, some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on and on and on

(Chorus)

Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlight, people

Don't stop believin' Hold on Streetlight, people

Don't stop believin' Hold on to the feelin' Streetlight, people

Don't stop** t wr
